Eat food. Stuff you like. As much as you want.
So…telling people what to eat seems to be quite the thing to do, no?
And telling people to eat whatever they want is…well, it’s incredibly controversial.
It’s just not done.

Yessss.
Seriously, I wait for this all year. Like Christmas morning.
First up, [...]
Notes on how I eat.
This is an intensely personal thing to write about, and it’s something I usually avoid, because I absolutely believe that it’s no person’s — especially no fat person’s — obligation to disclose what they eat as a means of justifying their existence.
But because this blog is about nutrition, dieting, and normal eating, and because I’m [...]
